Sears’ takes readers on a transformative journey back to Genesis, the astounding start of it all, including time itself. First looked upon as a passion project inspired by the author’s re-visitation of Genesis in adulthood, this book is designed to interest readers of all religions, ideal for anyone interested in knowing the Bible better. This book provides a refreshing perspective on creation, a deep dive into everything discussed in Genesis, including big stories along with the book’s minor characters and interpretation of “smaller” stories. As part of this thoughtful examination of Genesis, Sears explores the ever-present, all-important God-human relationship and the more challenging topics in the Book of Genesis.
“My hope is that readers will be inspired to go back and read the huge, undiscovered land that is the book of Genesis for themselves, and experience it in all its glory,” said Sears.
